Please remove the web cam and uninstall the driver of the web-cam. now reinstall the driver after the PC was restarted and then connect the web-cam to be detected and installed.
if this wont work then the web cam is faulty- a hardware issue.
Hi, You need to uninstall previos web cam driver/s from (control panel>add/remove>uninstall web cam drivers), restart the system and then install suyin driver
I hope this helps!
That's your best bet.. Uninstall your original web cam in add/remove programs and try reinstalling it. More likely the 2nd camera slimed the first camera's installation. Uninstalling and reinstalling should freshen up things and fix the settings.
If the Web cam was Generic, or even Brand name, and it came with a Drivers disc (this would mean that it is not plug and play), try completely uninstalling the Driver software for the web cam. After the uninstall has finished, reinstall the drivers, taking extra care to follow ALL on screen instructions to the T. If at some point there were other web cams, and the drivers that belonged to those cams installed on the computer, be sure to fully uninstall all of them. Only use the cam and the drivers that you are attempting to install. After all of that, the cam should work just fine.
If for some reason the cam does not work after reinstalling the drivers, try a different brand of web cam. The computer that the drivers are attempting to operate on may not be adequate to support those drivers. If that's the case, try a generic, cheaper web cam as I said.
Also: While powering up the cam, don't run anything unnecessary.
i have vista home and mine worked fine until i installed a web cam and then it just gave up. But now it works great - here is what i did
unpluged both the scanner and the web cam
uninstalled everything to to w/ the scanner and the web cam.
Installed the driver from the CD and restarted my machine
